Little Grey Rabbit lives with Squirrel and Hare in a little house on the edge of a wood. It's going to be Grey Rabbit's birthday on Midsummer Day, and Squirrel and Hare are planning a wonderful surprise for her. They've invited all their woodland friends to a birthday party, and are making a birthday cake, all by themselves! But they are keeping it a secret from poor Grey Rabbit, who feels very left out. She'll just have to wait and see - AGES: 3+ years AUTHOR: Alison Uttley (1884-1976) grew up at Castle Top Farm in Derbyshire and her passion for the countryside comes across vividly in the timeless Little Grey Rabbit Stories, the first of which were published over eighty years ago.

Her partnership with Uttley lasted for forty years.
